How many people went on noah's ark?

Eight people is the classic answer because most people do not read with the intent to find deeper meaning. In Genesis chapter 7, verses 13-16 (KJV) give a detail description of all who were listed upon the ark. Most were sent in by two except for those of "clean" animals which would be set aside for sacrifice and they went in by 7. (Note: all information is brought forth from the Bible- King James Version)

Verse 13, it gives the names of Noah, Shem, Ham, Japheth and their wives. This is where most people would answer, 8. However, as one who studied Foreign Language, I understand the Bible is a translated work. The original Scripture was written in Hebrew. Therefore, I was curious for more of a mechanical view so I researched each of the English words for a deeper meaning in the Hebrew language. It was not until the 15th verse that a revelation of more people upon the ark.

"And they (the animal life listed in verse 14) went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life."

"...two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life." is the key here. In Hebrew, the word breath is ruach. Ruach occurs 389 times in the Old Testament. In each instance, it was given to show characteristic of the following: God, Holy Spirit, mankind, and angels. It denotes "invisible force" or the psychological of a being. This was given to mankind from God, the Creator of all things (See the book of John, chapter 1) Although, animal life, e.g. a cow, does breathe air and would die without air, it does not have a soul. There is possibility, there are those who may believe that animals do have a soul however I base my thought from faith in the written WORD of God.

Therefore, it is my contention that the "two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life" are those of the Gentile people as would be known later by the children of Israel. Remember, the children of Israel where a chosen people from the Messiah would come from to bring salvation to all nations, kindred, tongues. Maybe, this will give a better appreciation of the genealogies scribed in the Word of God. It shows the family lineage from which Jesus was born. (Matthew chapter 1 -royal lineage and Luke 3- natural lineage)

Was noah who built the ark a real person?

Scientists tell us conclusively that there never was a great Flood as described in the Bible. And they tell us that the Flood as described would be physically impossible. Scholars tell us that the biblical story of Noah and his Ark is very similar to the flood story in the much older Epic of Gilgamesh.

For these and many other reasons, we can say with certainty that Noah was not a real person.

Does God get angry?

no one can answer that question, myself i dont believe in god and i am not religious but i guess when earthquakes and other "natural disasters" happed it may be "god" being angry

Another Answer:

yes look at the flood

Answer:

"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the WRATH of God abideth on him." (John 3:36)

"For the WRATH of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the Truth in unrighteousness." (Rom.1:18)

Indeed, look at the flood. But, look, also, at the next flood:

"For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that then was, being overflowed by water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, WHICH ARE NOW, by the same Word ARE KEPT IN STORE, RESERVED UNTO FIRE AGAINST THE DAY OF JUDGMENT and perdition of ungodly men...

"...the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which... the elements shall melt with fervent heat..." (II Peter 3:5-12).

I think "angry" might not be the right word for what God shall be when He returns. The world is not going to be happy:

"...THEN shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and THEN SHALL ALL THE TRIBES OF THE EARTH MOURN..." (Matt.24:30).

"...and the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men... bondmen, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the WRATH of the Lamb: for THE GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH IS COME; who shall be able to stand?" (Rev.6:15-17)

Eight people stood after the anger of the flood. How many will stand after the wrath of God's fire?

Rachel's Answer:

yes i do believe god gets angry but its more like disappointed...

natural disasters are just how the world works none of them are too do with god getting angry when there is a flood or an earthqueck or whatever thats gods way of giving us a challenge he is testing us strengthening us when we lose loved ones he is testing us to see if we still look up to him still believe in him. sometimes when you lose someone you love when they die they dont die away into nothingness there is always a reason why they die, and that reason is that god is needing them for something important up in heaven when someone passes away they always have an afterlife and its a perfect afterlife just lik it was in the begining. when the world was created got made two humans- adem and eve they lived in a perfect world were there were no such sin then god decided to test them just like he does to us... they failed the test that why the world is nowdays bad and evil fulled with bitterness and sin

it is not gods fualt the devil is the one you should be blaming.

Who is Elohim the Hebrew god?

The two earliest anonymous authors known to have contributed to the writing of the Book of Genesis are now known as the Yahwist and the Elohist.

The Yahwist (J Source) always used Yahweh (YHWH) as the name for an anthropomorphic God with human characteristics, who made promises and covenants with his chosen people. The source's main interests were the southern kingdom, Judah.

The Elohist (E Source) always used Elohim as the name for a more transcendent God who required obedience and was feared by his people. This source came from the northern kingdom of Israel. The name Elohim is the plural of El, or 'god' in Hebrew, but when used with a singular verb or in a singular context, always referred to the Elohist's national God.

Many people have looked for Noah's Ark in Turkey, hoping to find any evidence that the Book of Genesis is historically true. The main focus for these searches has been Mount Ararat and, in fact, at least one person claimed to have finally found it. Subsequent, more objective, visits demonstrated that what was there was merely a geological formation that could, in the right light, look something like the bow of a ship. As long as there are religious people in the world, they will probably keep looking for Noah's Ark.
